I had a successful writing day, until I tried posting about it here in the comments! Tried posting snippet but wanted it under a cut -- which doesn't seem to work in replies. Anyway, sorry about that. Maybe I'll try again next Saturday when I'm doing the snippet post. :-)

I wrote today, as well as posted, and did a bunch of planning for other stories. It's a bingo challenge this month in one of my writing communities. I'm a mod in charge of posting some of the prompts, as well as writing for the prompts, so it's going to be a busy month. But fun!

More thinking about writing while attempting to do some fic writing and other stuffing from me today.

Well, uh, I was going to get math worksheets done tonight. And then I sat down and added 500 words to the Rookie Blue WIP I've been working on, lol. Finished the third chapter (which ended up being one very long continuous scene) and now I'm not quite sure what the next scene should be, but I'll let it percolate overnight and see if my mind comes up with something. I've got some vague ideas…

I actually posted about my February in general, and included some snippets from the fic here, if anyone's curious.

As far as putting a snippet here, these are a few lines I liked from this scene (I think it has to do with knowing the characters, though, so not sure it'll translate for y'all):

Rinsing her mouth out did help with the general gross feeling, but the exhaustion was still there. She spat another mouthful out on top of where she had vomited earlier.

"You should probably do that farther down the path," Sam said. "Less chance of contaminating the scene."

"Yeah, well, I already threw up there, so it's a little late for that," Andy retorted. She turned to Oliver. "Are we done?"
